Dietitian Ivannikova advised Russians with gastritis and ulcers to drink jelly for a snack 
people with gastritis and stomach ulcers, RIA Novosti reports.
The specialist called jelly an ideal product for Russians with gastritis and ulcers. She also noted its nutritional value and calorie content. According to the nutritionist, jelly has a positive effect on the intestinal microflora, as it reduces the volume of pathogenic flora and accelerates the growth of beneficial bacteria. The expert advised to drink it for a snack.
“The starch in the jelly helps to lower blood cholesterol levels, which reduces the risk of atherosclerosis, heart and vascular diseases. This drink slows down the absorption of fats, so less cholesterol enters the bloodstream, “Ivannikova explained.
However, the nutritionist stressed that for some people, jelly may be a harmful product. It is rich in carbohydrates, so patients with diabetes should use this drink with caution.
Previously, Canadian and Iranian nutritionists named foods that reduce the risk of diabetes. These included dairy products – for example, low-fat yoghurts. At the same time, cheese worsens the condition of people predisposed to diabetes.
